Comments:- Recorded by Decca at performances and rehearsals (July, August 1955). See John Culshaw in «Ring Resounding» p.51. Since Sieglinde was sung by Mödl and Varnay in the performances at Bayreuth in 1955, the parts of this recording in which Sieglinde appears must have been recorded at rehearsals. This was possibly to avoid contractual problems as Mödl was an «EMI artist».
